Looks like you answered your own question.

I go to UTI in phoenix right now, and in my undercar class(steering, susp., wheels, and tires.) we watched a video that said air will just about be obsolete in like ten years, that the nitrogen is so much better. It also said that alot of trucks have been using it for the past couple years.
